of "scabs," while on the witness stand,
in the case of the Wyandotte train
wreckers, has a peculiar significance.

term "scabs," he said, "People who
beat men out of their honest bread
and butter" Think of it, these ras
Gals who had no hesitancy in beating
man-an honest man too out OF
his bread and butter because he
worked for those dependent upon him,
had the audacity to stand up in open
court and give such reason for ap
plying abusive ephitets to his fellow
laborers. 1t is exactly such brazen
effrontry, and such persistence in
bounding men, such lying to protect
each other as has been evidenced in
in the Wyandotte trial, that has
brought the organization known as
Knights of Labor, into such. disrepute.
"Scabs" my yet have the comfort Of
knowing men like these train wreck
ers are not only dishonest, but that
their dishonesty has landed them
where they richly deserve to be, be-
hind the bars of the Kansas peniten-
tiary.
